Being Better.

B and I have been blessed with some pretty amazing friends.

The other night we were driving home from a Jazz game (they all came to watch and support...how awesome are they?!) and we started talking about the gospel.

We all decided that we need to step it up, be better and try harder.

We decided to start having FHE as a group on Monday nights at 10:00 in an effort to be better.

This Monday was our first group FHE and it was so so so so awesome.

Meggy had the lesson and we talked about service and how it's the small and simple things that can really add up.

We all wrote down a list of things we are going to do this week to serve those around us and we're going to report to everyone next week.

So far, it's be awesome. 

B went and got me some food at 11:30 on Tuesday night cuz I was starving and exhausted.

He would have done it anyway, but I'm all, "wow...look at you SERVE!"

Then I gave him a 30 min. foot massage free of charge, and he's all, "service is GREAT!"

Also...we're all stoked on that pic up there.
One day, five thousand FHE's later, we'll look at that piccy and be like, wow...we were so good looking and young and youthful and little and young.

Also, Jen and baby East...you were missed.
Jesse was sad without you.

Now....go serve, kids.
And you're all welcome to FHE if you need a little something something to help you be better.
Plus...Meggy brings treats. And sweats are encouraged. And we're all pretty funny dang funny.

Halloween 2014

This year, we decided to do something a little more intimate and less crazy loco than last year's Halloween Party (click here to read Halloween 2013). 

So we invited some of our close friends over for dinner and some games. 

I spent all freaking day putting together that dinner table up there and was so happy with how it all turned out.

This year, we were a utah jazz dancer and a basketball player. 

It was way WAY last second, but turned out to be easy peasy.

Also, I was a box last year for Halloween, so I didn't feel too bad about making B put on that awesome bike-a-tard and beautiful wig. 

And those hairy arm pits and face scruff of his just really finish off the look.

Also, I didn't get pics of everyone, SORRY FRIENDS!!!

For one of the games, we put together a scavenger hunt. 

I highly (highly!) recommend it for anyone putting on a party. 

You guys. It was so. much. fun.

We gave each couple a list of items to accomplish in 40 minutes and each item had a different point value. 

The couple with the most points, wins the game. 

At the end of the list, I added some pretty ridiculous things with some high point values. 

Like...run two miles, jump in Utah Lake, hike the Y, etc. 

B and I really (like really really) wanted to win that dumb scavenger hunt. 

So what did we do?

Jumped in Utah Lake. 

It was so freezing I wanted to die. 

But we did it, you guys!

 And great news, WE WON!!!

Jk. 

We FREAKING DIDN'T WIN.

2 other couples jumped in the lake too...and 1 couple ran 2 miles!

I'm like, what?! WHAT?!

But whatever. We at least got 3rd place and a gift card to Cold Stone.

So I guess it was all worth it. 

And seriously, it was so funny. 

B and I were laughing the whole 40 minutes.

We took so many pictures with strangers and probably broke the speed limit way too many times. 

And B couldn't take a picture of me in the lake for some reason...our camera was acting weird.

I kept dunking myself in the lake and he kept saying "I didn't get it, do it again!!"

And I'm all, "I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!!!" 

Hahaha....such good times.

I hope you all had a happy and safe Halloween!
